Obama tucks Cameron into bed after long day
Author: Jonathan Warren
Prime minister David Cameron may not be the most streetwise person on the planet, though on Tuesday it was revealed that he was given special treatment by one of the coolest cats in world politics - Barack Obama, the US president.
It was reported that Obama - likely running into a second term as American leader due to the somewhat questionable opposition running against him from the Republican Party - made sure that a sleepy Cameron was "tucked up in bed" during the pair's trip on Air Force One.
Unlike Harrison Ford in the movie of the same name, Obama and Cameron were able to enjoy the luxury of the famous plane's double beds, should the pair have needed sleep, though a busy schedule and the possibility of jetlag undoubtedly saw Cameron struggling to keep his eyes open. As such, the president allowed him to use his personal quarters.
Speaking to members of his constituency in Witney, Cameron explained: "It was 4:00am UK time so he said 'David, why don't you use my bed and put your feet up,' so I duly did.
"Barack went to the back of the plane and explained to my private secretary and the team 'don't worry, the British Prime Minister is fine I have just tucked him up in bed'. I don't think that has happened before."
